New to Yamaha Jet

[Mikebot77]

New to Yamaha boats. I have a 2021 252S coming some time this spring and this is my first Jet boat. I was trying to find the differences between the 252S and the 252SE and wonder if someone can let me know. Also, anyone who has a 252S from 2020 let me know how you like it. Appreciate it

The 25’ boats are new boats for 2021, the 2020 boats were 24’ and there were no 25’. I don’t know all the differences between 25’ S and SE but I know you can compare them on Yamaha’s website.

Check out my post in this thread from a while back where I bulleted out the differences I was aware of.

Awesome. I put money down on the 252S but I see what your saying about what's another 4K. LOL I should have maybe done more research. I was so worried I would miss out on locking somehting in for 2021. Those are def some great features. I think I am ok with the bimini top not being fixed on there, but I would like the electronic throttle and the push button start. The sales person def led me to believe the upgrades were not a big deal. I think I will be good with it. First dip into the jet boat market so I was def very cautious, but I think I made the right move. Have you had a jet boat previously? Where do you use yours? Salt or Fresh water?

Take a look at the grid I put together on this page:

None of the extras on the SE are necessary, just nice to haves. The bimini being fixed on the SE isn't a big deal but the fact that it's larger than the one on the S is nice. If you plan to do any watersports, the cruise control and acceleration controls can also come in handy.

This is my first jet boat, put my deposit down in mid-August when the new 25 foot lineup was first announced and it came in to my dealer mid-September. I'm in NC, primarily fresh water lakes but I'll probably bring it with me to the coast on vacation once in a while.
